A High-Efficiency and Interpretable Framework for Microparameter Calibration via PSO-Optimized Machine Learning and SHAP Analysis
摘要
The calibration of microparameters in particle flow code (PFC) remains a major bottleneck due to their non-physical nature and the inefficiency of conventional trial-and-error methods. To address these limitations, this study proposes a novel, efficient, and interpretable calibration framework by integrating a Particle Swarm Optimization-optimized Backpropagation Neural Network (PSO-BP) surrogate model for inverse parameter identification in PFC. By leveraging 300 automated uniaxial compression simulations, a robust nonlinear mapping from micro- to macro-parameters is established, achieving exceptional predictive accuracy (R2 > 0.99). The optimized surrogate enables inversion within ~ 5 min, with errors as low as 1.6% (uniaxial strength) and 1.8% (elastic modulus) against experimental data. Remarkably, the model exhibits outstanding generalizability across six rock types, yielding an average accuracy of 99%. For the first time in PFC calibration, SHAP interpretability analysis is employed to unveil the physical significance of microparameters, identifying emod and krat as dominant for elastic modulus, and pb_coh and pb_ten as primary controls for uniaxial strength.
